Though 74 hours remain before the window closes on the use of the franchise tag, we’re told that the Saints have still given safety Darren Sharper no indication as to whether or not the veteran will be offered $6.445 million for 2010.
There also have been no talks, we’re told, regarding the multi-year deal that Sharper reportedly wants.
We’d be surprised if Sharper hits the open market, and even more surprised if the Saints allow him to leave, since his departure would dampen the euphoria that still emanates from the entire state of Louisiana.
